Spicy Mussels With Cauliflower, Basil and Lime

  1. Cut the cauliflower into small 1/2-inch florets; dice the stems.
  2. (You should have about 2 cups; save any extra for another purpose.)
  3. In a large pot over medium heat, warm the oil.
  4. Add the cauliflower, shallots, chiles, garlic and a large pinch kosher salt.
  5. Cook, stirring occasionally, until cauliflower is crisp-tender, about 5 minutes.
  6. Add the mussels to the pot.
  7. Cover and cook over medium-high until most mussels have opened, 7 to 10 minutes.
  8. Discard any unopened mussels.
  9. Stir in basil and lime juice.
  10. Season with kosher salt.
  11. Serve immediately, with crusty bread for soaking up juices.
